“Cry Me a River”

Antisocial by Jillian Blake

The drama was almost too much to handle when JT released “Cry Me a River,” a song dedicated to his not-so-low-profile ex-girlfriend. It’s only point? To expose the secrets and wrongdoings in their relationship. If you ate that up, then you HAVE to read Antisocial by Jillian Blake. Why? Because Alexandria Prep is about to be exposed.

Senior spring was supposed to mean sleeping through class and partying with friends. But for Anna Soler it’s going to be a lonely road. She’s just been dumped by her perfect basketball star boyfriend—with no explanation. Anna’s closest friends, the real ones she abandoned while dating him, are ignoring her. The endearing boy she’s always had a complicated friendship with is almost too sympathetic. But suddenly Anna isn’t the only one whose life has been upended. Someone is determined to knock the kings and queens of the school off their thrones: one by one, their phones get hacked and their personal messages and photos are leaked. At first it’s funny—people love watching the dirty private lives of those they envy become public. Then the hacks escalate. Dark secrets are exposed, and lives are shattered.
